Yes, I am exclusive!

I was reminded of this folk tale from India recently and thought about those who say all religions are equal.

It was six men of IndostanTo learning much inclined,Who went to see the Elephant(Though all of them were blind),That each by observationMight satisfy his mind.

The First approach’d the Elephant,And happening to fallAgainst his broad and sturdy side,At once began to bawl:“God bless me! but the ElephantIs very like a wall!”

The Second, feeling of the tusk,Cried, -“Ho! what have we hereSo very round and smooth and sharp?To me ’tis mighty clearThis wonder of an ElephantIs very like a spear!”

The Third approached the animal,And happening to takeThe squirming trunk within his hands,Thus boldly up and spake:“I see,” quoth he, “the ElephantIs very like a snake!”

The Fourth reached out his eager hand,And felt about the knee.“What most this wondrous beast is likeIs mighty plain,” quoth he,“‘Tis clear enough the Elephant Is very like a tree!”

The Fifth, who chanced to touch the ear,Said: “E’en the blindest manCan tell what this resembles most;Deny the fact who can,This marvel of an ElephantIs very like a fan!”

The Sixth no sooner had begunAbout the beast to grope,Then, seizing on the swinging tailThat fell within his scope,“I see,” quoth he, “the ElephantIs very like a rope!”

And so these men of IndostanDisputed loud and long,Each in his own opinionExceeding stiff and strong,Though each was partly in the right,And all were in the wrong!

The only person who truly know what an elephant looks like is the person who can actually see the elephant. The point I’m getting at is this: If you say all religions are equal what you are claiming in essence is that you have the ability to see what they don’t. You are claiming to have knowledge that is superior to those who have religion. So your view is really just as exclusive as any religions maybe. Because you claim to have revelation they don’t posses.

I embrace the claim that Christianity is the only way to God and heaven, but tell me what other religion claims to have a Savior who died for his enemies, commands us to love and pursue peace with each other?

How to become a Christian

John 3:36 He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life:
and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life;
but the wrath of God abideth on him.

3. Confess The Lord Jesus.

Romans 10:9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus,
and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead,
thou shalt be saved.
